Abstract

The research aims to grasp trends of global maritime boundary delimitations from the 1940s to 2014 with statistical visualisations. The quantitative analysis reveals historical developments of delimitation schemes and methods. It also confirms the straight-forward relationship between coastal geography and delimitation methods which was insisted by the early work by Hankey and Legault (1993) [10] and general direction towards the equidistant based methods. Moreover, the finding of oversea territories cases will shed a light on other factors such as socio-historical contexts which might affect the delimitation direction as background circumstances.
